Samuel needs a lift to the Los Angeles Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to the Los Angeles Kidney Centre would keep Samuel on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Samuel has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Los Angeles Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Samuel can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week.
We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 11 km each way.
Samuel is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food.
Please say which day works for you in the comments.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there, Josephine. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Keep going, Josephine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
best of luck, Josephine. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Take care. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Mecca.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Santos.
Hope it all works out, Josephine. This could happen to any of us.
hope the doctors have good news. My husband and I read this together.
I hope things turn around soon. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
Wishing you the best, Josephine. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up
Sending good thoughts, Josephine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
hope it all works out. I hope things turn around soon. After 23 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
